| 摘要： | Volvo Penta stopped the sales and marketing of Seven Marine outboard engines on Jan. 1, 2021, as well as phasing out production once customer demand is met. The company will, however, continue to support the current outboard customer base by taking full warranty and parts responsibility for the products that are in the field. (Seven Marine remains in our directory this year because Volvo is still producing engines that were already ordered.) Diesel Outboards LLC, Lake Placid, Fla., just put a pair of 200-hp Oxe diesel outboards on a repowered workboat for Morgan City, La.-based TK Towing. The Swedish outboards, which feature a BMW engine, will soon be made in the U.S. at Diesel Outboard Manufacturing in Albany, Ga. All the engine parts will also be made at the Georgia plant. "The main appeal of these outboards is the safety, longevity and lower cost of maintenance as compared to a gas outboard," said David LeBlanc of Diesel Outboards. "The diesel outboards are more expensive, but if you run the boat a lot, the fuel economy is over 50 percent and you can pay for the engines in about eight months." LeBlanc said the first Oxe 300 diesels in the U.S. will be delivered at the end of April. |
